ABSTRACT:
A connector is disclosed which is made from a plurality of electrical contacts, each of which is a resilient spring, spaced along a continuous web of insulative material which serves to locate the contacts in desired positions and provides an insulation back or cover for the contacts. The method and apparatus for making the subject laminated connector is also disclosed. The plurality of contacts are first formed from a continuous strip of metal, an insulative web is laminated to the metal contacts, and the laminated connector is bent by a continuous roller or die forming operation to desired curvilinear arcuate shapes. Discrete lengths of contacts formed together with the carrier strip are broken away or otherwise separated from the carrier strip either prior to or after the bending operation.
